Herniated Disc Treatment

Symptoms of a Herniated Disk

A herniated or slipped disk can affect an individual's comfort and can happen anywhere along the spinal column. The disks on the spinal cord follow a pattern, and any abnormalities can lead to back complications. At Dr. Phillips Chiropractic Nutrition and Wellness in San Antonio, TX, we provide treatment for these issues and many other painful conditions.

Common Symptoms

Herniated disks are caused by strain on the back. People whose jobs require heavy manual labor are at a greater risk of having a slipped disk. The disks cannot handle the pressure placed on them when you lift a lot of weight they can tear, resulting in a herniated disk. Sports and other intense physical activities, as well as degeneration, can also cause herniated discs.

Here are some of the most common symptoms of a herniated disk.

Pain and Discomfort

You may experience a lot of pain and discomfort with a herniated disk. The pain may not always be prevalent, but the discomfort happens when you are in certain positions. The pain is often felt in the lower back or neck. If you happen to feel this symptom, book an appointment with our chiropractor.

Numbness

Aside from pain and discomfort, a common symptom is numbness that affects the legs or arms. You may not have any sensation in the leg or arm areas of the body. Once you start having this symptom, you must see our chiropractor.

Tingling and Burning Sensation

The most severe symptoms are burning and tingling. The affected nerves start to tingle, and you may feel as if a needle is pricking you. 

Pain on One Side of the Body

The affected nerves tend to harm one side of the body, causing discomfort and numbness. The pain affects the body from the neck to your toes and is severe, primarily on the lower back and thighs.
